RR or Radiator or exactly this dll-function "GetRDSData()" in an own written program ?!

RR seems to give me the RDS data also (with much waste in it) but looking into the sourcecode it seems to use a function named "VB_GetRDSData()" and i am not sure if this is the same function :-/ and i dont know how to use it in C#
I get an error saying i cannot use this writeprotected item...

Is it possible to expose a VB_SetVolume function as well. If I mute the radio I can still hear noise comming from the radio (probably the D/A converter still working). I noticed that it disapprears using the Silabs sample application when lowering the volume.

Sourcecode? Link

For an ADS/Silabs USBRadio.dll you have to edit some files...

"FMRadioDevice.h"
//Device data
#define silabs_FMRADIO_VID 0x10C4
#define silabs_FMRADIO_PID 0x818A
#define adstech_FMRADIO_VID 0x06e1
#define adstech_FMRADIO_PID 0xa155

"FMRadioDevice.cpp"
int CFMRadioDevice::GetAudioDeviceIndex()
{
...
//If FM Radio is found, open the radio immediately, this is our device
if (!strcmp(waveInputCapabilities.szPname, "FM Radio") || !strcmp(waveInputCapabilities.szPname, "ADS InstantFM Music"))
{
...

"FMRadioDevice.cpp"

bool CFMRadioDevice::OpenFMRadioData()
{
...
//Check that the VID and PID match
if ((hidDeviceAttributes.VendorID == silabs_FMRADIO_VID) && (hidDeviceAttributes.ProductID == silabs_FMRADIO_PID) || (hidDeviceAttributes.VendorID == adstech_FMRADIO_VID) && (hidDeviceAttributes.ProductID == adstech_FMRADIO_PID))

Ciao

question: I am glad someone finally got the ADS FM device working. My question is... After I replace the .dll file what do i set the RR config to? I tried just starting RR but I am getting no response from the device.

TIA,
Tony

Choose the Silabs device.

Must have been a long weekend... I know I am just over thinking this

When I am in the RRconfig, under the radio tab, the only option I see is:
Radiator
D-Link USB
Cinergy 600
WinTV
HQCT
Blaupunkt
RadioShark

I am running RR version 4/11/2007.

There is a new RRConfig floating around that does it or go into RR.ini and change radiomode to radiomode=7
